There is something deeply 'Nintendo' about the Game Boy Camera. It mirrors the design philosophy of the Game Boy so well that it's staggering to think about. This was a digital camera built out of the cheapest possible components built for a decade-old handheld (that even at the time of it's release in '89, was already made out of budget parts) that could take 'photographs' in four shades of grey. It is pure Nintendo design that made the idea of the Game Boy Camera possible.
